Abstract

The invention relates to a software and hardware co-emulation verification system based on FPGA and a method thereof. The system comprises a network tester, a software system part which is arranged on an user PC terminal and a hardware system part used for simulating an integrated circuit chip; wherein, the software system part comprises a controlling platform of the network tester and an embedded system interface module; the hardware system part comprises a CPU interface module, an interface converter logic module in FPGA, a virtual waiting-for-testing module and a network interface module which can be used for realizing data exchanging between the interface converter logic module and the controlling platform of the network tester. The method is formed on the basis of the systems. The software and hardware co-emulation verification system based on FPGA and the method thereof have the advantages of being capable of carrying out high-speed emulation, greatly saving the time consumption for testing, realizing the whole-chip and whole-function verification and supporting the testing of a plurality of varieties of chips; simultaneously, the invention also has good physical expandability, adopts good debugging tools and further increases the emulation verification efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a simulation verification system and method of an integrated circuit (IC) chip, in particular to an FPGA-based software and hardware co-simulation verification system and method. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of large-scale integrated circuit technology and network communication, Ethernet switching chips have been widely used in network communication, and because its application environment is becoming more and more extensive and complex, the functions contained in Ethernet switching chips It is becoming more and more complex, the capacity is getting bigger and bigger, and the difficulty of chip simulation is also increasing rapidly. Therefore, how to speed up the development of Ethernet switching chips and shorten the verification cycle has become an important issue we are facing. [0003] In the existing integrated circuit (IC) chip simulation and verification field, two methods are mainly used for...
